Rhett Depew, who's been on death row for nearly 2 decades, will be heading to court for a new sentence.
Depew stabbed 27-year-old Teresa Jones, her 7-year-old daughter, Aubrey, and Aubrey's 12-year-old sister, Elizabeth, to death in 1984.
In 2000, a judge overturned Depew's sentence, blaming prosecutor's misconduct.
A federal appeals court agreed and ruled that Depew should be resentenced.
He could get 3 consecutive life sentences.
